Just Like Auntie!

My niece Brynne (4) did this all on her own.  She is always talking about the baby in her tummy.  It kicks, it's hungry (usually when she wants a treat), and sometimes it comes out and she plays with it. She did this when her mom was pregnant last year. Funny huh.

Cute Pictures!

My cousin Brooke is in town with her 2 year old son and they are staying with my sister so the kids have been spending alot of time together.  Here are some cute pictures of all the fun they have been having and then some random cuteness.  :)  Can you tell I am having so much fun not at work!


Strawberry Picking!




Fun in the sun!



He didn't like to crawl on his knees in the grass 
so he was doing this funny crawl.
Isn't he cute!
Fun at the Splash Pad!

Great Progress!

For the past month or so my dad has been getting this new throat therapy so it can build up the muscles in his throat and one day eat again.  Well that day has arrived!  He has made great progress in the last month and had a swallow test and the women who did the test was so happy to see how well he is doing.  This week the therapist wanted him to start eating soft foods and foods that are easy to swallow.  Yesterday I gave him 10 small pieces of Watermelon, 10 Cheeto Puffs, and a small piece Angel Food Cake and he finished it all!  I am so excited that he is actually eating now.  He hasn't eaten anything since September when they put his feeding tube in.  He still struggles a little bit but I think we are headed in a great direction.  :)

Our New Place!

We are finally unpacked and we are so excited to show off the new place.  This place is totally a blessing from the Lord.  We would have never know about it if it hadn't been for a caring friend who knew our situation (Thanks Lindsay!).  We can't wait to bring our daughter back here and finally have a room for her.  There is a business downstairs so we are a little worried about the noise level a baby brings so please pray that it won't be an issue.  Here are a few pictures.


We are on the second level of this 1892 home
The awesome backyard that no one will use but us.
The back porch that we can actually put our bbq on!

School Box


My niece (4) and I have been creating a school box for her that has different lessons and games in it.  Yesterday she got to decorate the box and then finally do a couple of lessons.  She loved it!

Our Crazy Life

We have been so busy lately getting ready for our big move this weekend, and this week is going to be even busier.  We cleaned out our garage so we will no longer need it!  We had a garage sale with a bunch of kooky ladies that kept buying each others stuff, one lady was selling something she bought from a neighbor last year!  Oh and they kept trying to get us to buy their crap too.  We will be selling a bunch of stuff on craigslist this week, and finally packing.  We did have some fun things in there too.  I chopped my hair off, and we had a fun BBQ with great friends.  The baby has also been kicking like crazy and Matt got to feel it for the first time last week.  So fun!
